 While most of the workers' comp numbers are pretty gloomy, there remains a tremendous amount of diversity with regard to the success of individual companies.

For example, data from the National Council on Compensation Insurance show that many companies appear to be reporting results that are at or above the projected cost of capital. And there are companies which, over a long period of time, seem to be capable of reporting very substantial and acceptable returns on surplus.

For some, current prices may be sustainable more or less indefinitely, exerting even greater competitive pressure on the weaker players.
